Feast of the Epiphany

 

Just Walking through the door of the church doesn’t mean you’re going to find God.

One has to pray. 

Just joining a gym doesn’t mean you’re going to get in shape.

One has to exercise. 

 

Just enrolling in a school doesn’t mean you’re going to learn anything.

One has to study. 

And just Looking at the stars didn’t mean the Wise men were going to find the Savior. 

They had to follow it. 

There are Stars throughout our life leading us. 

But we have to follow them. 

Easier said than done 

sometimes Grief and sorrow; suffering and loss

Has a tendency to blind us. 

Sometimes we have our nose to the grindstone so much;

We never look up. 

No matter how dark the night;

There are stars in the sky. 

Billions of them. 

One for everyone. 

For the lost and the lonely.

The doubters and those in despair. 

The overworked and heavily burdened. 

Take a moment and look up. 

Find your star 

And then follow it. 

What made the wisemen wise is that they follow their star?
